Seeing that Xiao Mingyue didn't say anything, Chen Xi couldn't help but call her.

After Xiao Mingyue came back to her senses, she shook her head at Chen Xi, then thanked him for sending Lu Yu back, and went back with her bulging belly.

Although Lu Yu was a bit snobbish, he had some friends in Kyoto. When she came back, some people came to pay their respects. Seeing her dressed in mourning and looking distraught, they thought she was heartbroken for Lu Yu and couldn't help but step forward to comfort her.

But Xiao Mingyue's mind was full of how to prove Lu Yu's identity at this time, and she had no time to deal with these people. In the end, she held her forehead and said she felt uncomfortable, and only then was she allowed to leave the mourning hall.

When she was about to leave, she looked back at the coffin parked there, and a sudden hatred surged in her heart.

Lu Yu is such a loser, he didn't even know how to choose a good time to die. Couldn't he wait until he recognized his ancestors and returned to his ancestral home before dying? He has made himself so passive now that he doesn't know what solution he should take to solve the current predicament!

After returning to the room, she ate something and leaned against the head of the bed, thinking about the current predicament. Suddenly, her eyes swept across the desk not far away, where Lu Yu often sat and read.

Book?

Thinking of books, Xiao Mingyue suddenly remembered that Lu Yu never allowed her to enter his study room casually before. The excuse was that it was messy and there was nothing interesting inside, so Xiao Mingyue had never been in.

She felt that all of Lu Yu’s secrets should be in the study. Now that he is dead, who can stop her?

She quickly put on her shoes and was about to go out.

Taozhi saw that she was about to go out again after just coming back, so she hurried to follow her.

"Ma'am, where are you going again?"

"Why would you mind where I go? Get out of here!"

Xiao Mingyue was already upset, and after hearing Taozhi's words, she pushed her away and strode towards the study.

Taozhi followed behind with a wronged look on her face, and finally stopped at the door of the study.

Looking at the door that slammed shut in front of her, Taozhi sighed, turned around and sat down on the steps.

Lu Yu's study was not messy, on the contrary it was very tidy. She knew at a glance that he had lied to Xiao Mingyue before, which made her even more certain that there must be some secret in the study.

She stood at the door and first took a general look at the study, then went straight to the desk. She opened all the books on the table and looked, but found nothing, so she went to look through the books on the bookshelf at the back.

She spent most of the day in the study, reading almost every book, but didn't find anything useful.

She angrily kicked the heavy armchair over and pushed everything on the table to the ground. When she was about to overturn the desk again, she suddenly felt a pain in her stomach.

She cried out "ouch" and fell to the ground, holding her stomach. Soon, cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

Taozhi heard a series of "crackling" sounds in the study, followed by Xiao Mingyue's screams. She was so scared that she quickly pushed the door open and ran in.

"Madam, what's wrong with you?"

"I, my stomach hurts..."

At this time, Xiao Mingyue no longer had the arrogance she had just now. She grabbed Taozhi's hand as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw.

"Go find a doctor quickly, the baby in my belly must be safe!"

Taozhi was also frightened and turned pale. She quickly shouted for help outside the door. Soon, two servants and a maid ran in. Seeing Xiao Mingyue's appearance, they quickly carried her back to the room.

At this time, a servant had already run to find the doctor, the same doctor from last time.

After diagnosing Xiao Mingyue, he sighed and said, "Mrs. Lu, if you continue like this, I'm afraid you won't be able to keep the baby in your belly. Even for the sake of the baby, you can't continue like this!"

Xiao Mingyue was startled and hurriedly covered her stomach. "Doctor, the baby in my belly must be safe. Just prescribe any medicine I need. Money is not a problem!"

The doctor thought that she and Lu Yu were deeply in love and wanted to keep a line of descendants for Lu Yu, so he admired her even more.

"Mrs. Lu, don't worry. As long as you don't get too emotional and try to stay calm, both the child and you will be fine!"

"Okay, I will take good care of my pregnancy for the next two days and not walk around casually anymore!"

Because of her miscarriage, and for the sake of the overall situation in the future, Xiao Mingyue could only lie in bed to take care of the baby, but she ordered Lu Yu's study to be sealed.

Others said that she sealed the study because the sight of the things reminded her of someone and she didn't want to make herself too sad, but only she knew that there must be other secrets hidden in Lu Yu's study, and in order to keep these secrets, she had to be cautious.

Ever since that day when Xiao Mingyue ran to the general's mansion and went crazy, she hasn't come back for three or four days. Xiao Ruge continues to live her own life. Only Mu Gu goes out early and comes back late every day, and is extremely busy.

He finally had some free time that day and came back before the sun set. Xiao Ruge was very happy to see him and immediately asked the kitchen to prepare two more dishes that Mu Gu liked.

"You don't have to accompany the chiefs of the Qiang, Hu and Yidi tribes today?"

When the two clan leaders came to Beijing, the emperor held a banquet in their honor. Because Mu Bo had not returned at that time, the banquet went quite smoothly.

But later, Mu Bo came back and started to make things difficult for the two clan leaders. Sometimes, even with Mu Gu around, it was useless, and in the end, they had to bring in the emperor to suppress him.

But I heard that he had a strange disease, his personality changed drastically, and he became very irritable.

"I came back today because my third brother was with me. I was so exhausted these past two days. This is the first time I've discovered that accompanying others for food, drinks and entertainment is also a chore!"

Mu Gu sat down next to Xiao Ruge, opened his mouth and ate the remaining half of the dessert in her hand, then leaned on her shoulder with tired heart.

"Then go to bed early today."

Mu Gu nodded, and after breakfast, they washed up and went to bed early. Mu Gu held the person in his arms and spoke to her softly.

"It feels like I haven't hugged you like this for a long time! Have you gained some weight? I feel like I'm not so uncomfortable anymore!"

While Mu Gu was talking, his hands were not honest and he kept touching Xiao Ruge's body, which made Xiao Ruge so angry that she slapped his hands away.

"You complained about me being thin before, what? Now you complain about me being fat?"

"No, no, I'm only happy when you eat and get fat. It's easier to have children when you're fat!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Xiao Ruge was so angry that she tried to pinch him. The two of them laughed and played on the bed for a while before talking about other things.

"Seventh and Eighth Senior Brothers have come to Beijing. I asked them to live in the General's Mansion, but they refused and stayed in the small courtyard in Chaohui Hutong."

There is a yard of Xiao Ruge in Chaohui Hutong, which is usually used as a place for contacting secret agents. But at this time it is blatantly occupied by the two senior brothers.

Speaking of Tong Jun and Ye Han, Mu Gu couldn't help but smile wider, "Come to think of it, the poison that Senior Brother Seventh gave Mu Bo should have taken effect. I heard that he has been living in the palace recently, and the imperial physician goes to his bedroom every day."
